Do you know all about Ovens?

Well, we are glad that you have taken one of the best decisions to go for modular kitchens and renovate your kitchen. And what can be a better idea other than upgrading all the appliances in the kitchen to render a stunning appearance and experience. Yes, right from refrigerators to ovens, it is quite possible to completely modernize your kitchen appliances and add graceful elegance to your new look kitchen. It is true that after having worked with all these old gadgets, you definitely deserve the best.
That being said, how far you are aware of the technological advances that have gone into the kitchen appliances? For instance, let us discuss about ovens, which has the true potential to present a complete makeover for your cooking style. While going for a new one, is it just enough to gauge the space availability and power requirements and other routine features? With the vast experience in designing customized modular kitchen, Maine Kuche throws detailed insights on plethora of features for you to choose the best oven that goes well along with your cooking style, convenience, and ofcourse the budget.
Both Size and capacity matters:
It is true that the dimensions of oven should conform to that of the kitchen and also need to match with the design of modular kitchen. But do not go only by the size of the oven; rather also concentrate how much is the usable inside space that it is offering for cooking. Make sure that its capacity is sufficient enough to cook for your entire family. Also go for modern ovens with two shelves that have practically become a norm and present you an excellent opportunity to utilize the space efficiently.
Go for Trivection:
Choosing ‘Trivection’ mode ovens, having a combo of microwave, convection, and grill, make sense for the present scenario of cooking methodologies. The reason being the availability of programmable or built in menu settings that not only effectively selects the correct setting of time and power for varieties of food, but also intelligently offers different combination of cooking methodologies.
Circulating fan cooking:
It is always a dilemma to decide upon the top or bottom shelf placements while baking and roasting. With feature such as circulating fan present in the oven, the heat energy inside the oven gets evenly spread and makes the job easier. Also, it should be noted that the desired oven temperature is achieved faster and thereby drastically cuts down the cooking time.
Choose the heating surface:
Even if your chosen model does not have a circulating fan, opt for the model that presents you with the choice of heating surface – top or bottom. While it really becomes very easy to achieve brownies through top heating option, re-heating of food or crispy layers for your pastries can be easily achieved through bottom heating. 
Check for add-ons and recent entries:
·         Ovens with humidity sensor to detect the inside moisture and defrost features are rapidly gaining popularity, as they can automatically adjust the power requirement and cooking time.
·         Self cleaning ability in the recent models would definitely bring smile across your face as all you have to do is wipe out the dried residue after it cools and not the messy greases of spillage.
·         Ultra modern ovens have begun making inroads in Indian markets and they are being highly appreciated for their rich features. Be it turbo grilling, slow cook, moist fan baking or keep warm, these features are sure to find right usage for your daily chores.
·         The recent entry in the oven category is ‘Light Ovens’ which has a halogen lamp in addition to the usual ‘Trivection’ combinations. It should be borne in the mind that the halogen lamp takes part in cooking your food only for browning and heating.


What we have illustrated above is just a part of the technological marvel of kitchen gadgets. As an endeavor to offer comprehensive service while creating a custom made modular kitchen in Pune for your house, we at Maine Kuche always offer best suggestions for the appliances to augment the performance of your kitchen activities.

Modular Kitchen Design Tips for the Modern Kitchen

Modular kitchen is a term recently coined by furniture experts for the style of kitchen furniture consisting of various modular units or cabinets that help in optimal space usage. Modular kitchen typically consists of several trolleys of different shapes and sizes and shelves to accommodate the various needs of the customer. These modules of cabinets are made of different materials like plywood, lamination, etc. that enhance the appearance of the kitchen while providing maximum space for storage.
A modular kitchen consists of wooden cabinets, counter tops, internal accessories; electronic gadgets like chimney, hob, built-in-oven, sink with or without drain board and in some cases a refrigerator and a dishwasher. A kitchen worktop made of granite/marble or wood holds the units kept on the floor called “Floor Units/Cabinets”. The units which are held on the wall are called Wall Cabinets/Units.
The market is flooded with different options for designing the kitchen. There are various branded and unbranded products available to suit customers with different tastes, needs and budgets. One is spoilt for choices and this is why you need expert guidance and a set of rules so that you head towards the right direction .Meine Kuche, experts in designer modular kitchens, suggest the following:
·         Planning: Planning and listing your requirements is the first step to designing a modular kitchen. Measure the total available area and list down the things that you need.For example an island style modular kitchen is ideal for those who love cooking leisurely and when there is enough space available. A combination of drawers and cabinets provides good storage. Based on your needs, you can allot spaces for trolleys, closed cabinets and fully or half open cabinets where you can display your designer kitchenware. Plan your corners so that the space does not get wasted. Installing open steel racks of triangular shapes helps in utilizing the corner space.
·         Budget: You should always be clear about the maximum amount that you are willing to spend on kitchen improvement. Along with the budget, decide on the materials that you would want the furniture to be made of. For example, Hardwood is the most expensive, but constant exposure to water causes solid wood to rot. So we must be careful while selecting the materials. Marine Ply is the ideal material for making cabinets as it is water resistant. The product durability should not be compromised when adhering to the budget. Expenditure on modular furniture is actually a long term investment. You would not want to incur it again and again.
·         Design: It is important to choose colors and design that will complement the surrounding area. Modular furniture comes in “L” shape or “C” shape, gallery/one-wall style and Parallel or two wall style. Choose the style based on your needs. Selection of colors should be done in way so that they merge well with the overall theme. Installing designer material made of stone, glass or wood on counter tops gives a classic and dignified look. Open racks and trays on counter top will ensure easy access to things that you need frequently.
·         Measurements: Proper measurement of the length, depth and height of the available space should be taken into account while designing the cabinets. Keep wall shelves at a height where you can easily access them.
·         Lighting: Proper lighting is very important to enhance the beauty of the kitchen. A good pair of lighting inside all the overhead cabinets, corners and walls will ensure you do not reach for something in darkness .Create false ceiling and install spot lights which will give an illuminating effect to the kitchen.
The biggest benefit of modular kitchen is the freedom of customization. 
As more and more people opt for the comfort and cosmetic appeal of the modular furniture, its demand is constantly increasing
